26th April at 7.35pm: A quick update. Many parcels have left today. The situation is as follows, we still have one order left to process for the 10th (Paris retailer), one for the 11th and a lot more still for the 15th through to the 18th - mostly USA wholesale orders. The plan now is to work on orders across the weekend and by no later than Tuesday 30th - every order placed upto the 18th will be dispatched. Ideally they will all be out by Monday 29th but based on how I called it wrong recently I think it's better to call it for Tuesday. I'll update on order lead times for the 19th onwards on Monday 29th. It goes without saying that I am very sorry about the lead-time but like the lab and staff, it is now just a matter of a month or so before we are better organised, holding larger stocks of each aromatic, and in turn the lead-times will drastically improve going forward. Ok, back on Monday and thank you to everyone for the continued support. Thank you, Adam : )
23rd April at 4.10pm: Unfortunately, regarding the message below and lead-times, I called it wrong. My apologies. As such all orders placed upto the 15th - and about half of those placed on the 16th, will leave by Friday 26th. On Thursday no collections are possible by couriers as it's a national holiday here in Italy. On the subject of SDS, the company handling this for us, has written to me today, acknowledged more are owed to us (submitted in December and January) and that they are now working on producing the final lot of SDS for us. This includes Plantation, Wild and Jungle ouds that many of you ask about. Next, I have spent the past year (literally) sampling ambrette seed e.o and absolutes from various producers and resellers to no avail. They all smell really poor compared to what I carried. They are too nutty, too fatty, too vegetative, too lacklustre, falling away very fast, and really dont showcase the musky textured qualities of a top ambrette properly. Even the big naturals brands are all obtaining and selling sucky poor man's ambrette at the moment. Written as I have decided to move over to carrying ambrette CO2 and this will be in place until I can find a wow absolute and E.O again. CO2 is still not on par with what I had, but it offers a far better profile on the musky front than the abs and e.os in the market place right now. This CO2 will be in stock by early May. Next, we will put all the non.eu destinations we can supply to, back on our website on May 6th - so U.A.E, UK, Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, Singapore and Australia. On the new product front, the next batch of 10 superstars will be released on the 20th May - lots more roses planned. And I will get started on expanding the bulk wholesale side of the business very soon - more aromatics and offered in larger weights as standard - likely upto a kilo on the website. Ok I will write again by Monday. Thank you, Adam : )
19th April at 5pm: Quick update to first say I have now added the following big ticket aromatics to the website: Italian Oakwood Absolute, Organic Georgian Rose Raduga Otto and finally Persian P.E.A Intense Rose (Otto). Orders, as I type with exception to 3 orders, every order placed up until the 11th has left with the couriers. By Monday 22nd, all orders placed up until the 14th will leave with couriers and I will type again across Monday with another update. Bulk Wholesale orders that still need to be manually typed and billed will be done so by Tuesday 23rd. Thank you, Adam : )
15th April at 5.30pm: Today I am running behind but I am happy to say that along with all E.U countries, we now can supply to the USA again. USA switched on just now and the Mysore Sandalwood 4 year aged E.O offer is extended for a week for USA clients to enjoy too. By Wednesday 17th all orders from the 9th April will be dispatched with DHL. Although we are rather full-on with orders at the moment, the lead time will improve significantly very shortly. Reason being since reopening the focus has been solely on building stocks up and we have staff coming on as well now (at last!). I will write again on Wednesday regarding lead times. This week my tasks are to get on top of the SDS we are owed by the company we have employed to handle this. And other than this I am adamant I will update the bulk wholesale list with more aromatics. Finally for now - the following 11 aromatics have recently been added to the site - French Rose Geranium E.O, Sandalwood Mysore E.O 4 Year Aged, Tuscan Olive Leaf Absolute, Mitti Attar (Petrichor), Persian Queen of Roses (Otto), Tomato Leaf Absolute, Oud Assami Skank E.O V.1, South Indian 10 Year Aged Vetiver E.O, Bengali Nagarmotha E.O, VIolet Leaf Concrete, Italian Helichrysum Absolute S.G. Thank you, Adam : )
Adam Michael has this to say “Rose Otto Persian Gold exudes an absolutely stunning aroma profile of world class qualities throughout. Hailing from the Kermanshah province, this spring yellow green to olive-green coloured masterpiece artisanal produced rose otto, opens with perfectly balanced brightness and power, the rosy notes feeling fresh, watery, sweet and alive. I find the opening aroma profile is reminiscent to the experience of drenching yourself in rose hydrolat on a warm summer’s morning, that cooling and hydrating experience, captured and displayed here in smell form sensation. Also on display within the opening are wave upon wave of morning dewy rose, crushed dark green leaves and fridge fresh, juicy-fruit tonalities.
As time progresses, I also pick out a distinct lemonade character, not the big-industry produced diabetes inducing fizzy pop offerings, but instead homemade lemonade that mums and dads make for their children on a warm summer’s day in the garden. That thirst quenching sugared lemon aroma is here with its “home-made” quality and supported by a never-ending rainbow of divine scented rose flowers of a pink coloured theme.
The aroma is so bright and impressive that had me musing on how far a material like this is from the world-famous and super hyped Saudi Arabian Taif rose. Needless to say, shortly after I went through our reference materials and carried out direct comparisons with this Persian Gold and Saudi Taif on strip and skin, paying attention to aroma opening, manner of aroma development, stand out nuances and maximum duration of aroma in optimal form. Now normally both Saudi and Iranian offerings will be in the same aromatic ballpark. In this instance, forget about it, Persian Gold absolutely obliterates Saudi Taif from start to finish. This Persian Gold is richer in scent profile throughout, substantially juicier, fruitier, with a rose oomph that the Saudi Taif can’t get anywhere near, and thus why I am bestowing the gold tag on this Persian masterpiece. This is without question superior to either gas or wood powered 50K USD per kilo Taif (less expensive if you can buy within Saudi).
For me, my rating is a solid 10 out of 10, the most perfect rose otto I have ever encountered, a rose floral experience that delivers joy throughout its lifespan of over 10 hours on the strip and 4 hours on my skin type from a generous swipe. As for uses, it can of course be used whenever a rose note is needed, more so when you want to inject both rose-breezy effects and power into the composition. This said, personally this is of such a high calibre that I would really only encourage buyers to use this within projects when you really want to impress the client and also to keep some on hand as a reference material.”
